Re: Reason for usernames

Sq-Cubicle-Pi is for a wide variety of reasons. Math is fun to me! I'm learning to see life & forms as sequential, in certain patterns, or even the "hidden" out in the open, esp. w/ letters (i.e., name numerology).

In addition, Spheres are similar to the size of a square, but take up 80% of the area surrounding it! Both are geometrical, yet 1 is not a polyhedron! :P *I grew up enjoying trying to figure out how & why objects in clear marbles were so tiny & shown upside down!!*

Pi [radius!] forms an entire circle. There's 1D, points; 2D, flat surfaces w/o heights or depth; 3D, the whole thing! The more in depth things are, the more interested I am of it! A sphere is a good, simple example of 3D & even Pi!

I also believe most, if not all things, are done in sq's & cubicles, but also most, if not all, things are in Fibonacci Sequence! Everything has a spiral effect to it! *This includes certain flowers, the universe, possibly even the iris to an eyeball!!! But the typical example would be a seashell.*

Going back through this thread, I had hope of learning the inspiration for yours, but couldn't find anything. "Meet the bottom turtle?" (like in that famous Hindu stack of turtles, holding up the world?)

When I signed up for these forums, I was chewing bubblegum… due to the fact, that I am not that creative at coming up with a funny or catchy nickname, I simply choose something I ate or I am doing at the moment (e.g. ApplePie in a writers forum) :P

Ettu comes from Caesar's dying words in William Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar; "Et tu, Brute?" And if you haven't figured it out by now, 0315 refers to the infamous date of the Roman Emperor's assassination; March 15th, the Ides of March.

I was going to go with 031544, but that just seemed like too many numbers for a username. I even considered Ettu031544BC. Again, it just seemed like too much.

I used to be in a rock band called Heavy Water. It was during undergrad school, and our founder and lead guitarist was a physics major. Most of you of course know that heavy water is the Deuterium laden water used to cool those fuel rods in nuclear reactors.
